Agree with pretty much everyone here. The Shins original is a great song (and also RP-worthy) but the boys from East LA take it to the next level.
Heartbreakingly beautiful. Fake AI will never be able to touch us like this. Thank you real artists for connecting us to the Universe and the Universal.

A Shins cover song that is better than the OG - Los Lobos is always and forever an amazing band! Long live LL.

Hadn't heard this before. Many hidden Los Lobos gems out there if you look & listen. Thanks RP.
Such a pretty track - one of those that makes me stop/listen then looking out the window on a sunny day in London!!

Played twice yesterday, one by The Shins and this one. Now here is this one again. This is such a beautiful song. Please don't ruin it by overplaying it.
Lovely tune.
There's another band that covers this.
Both are very good.

I've loved loved loved this track since it first came out. So glad to see it on RP. Giving it a 9!
I've been a fan for decades but somehow never got this album. And the funny (to me) part is that I thought it was Pedro the Lion.
Leave it to RP listeners...I have listened to the Shins and did not recognize this song. What a great version, if so.

Just listening to Williams comments about the original being by the Shins - now need to go find that as I haven't heard it. Love RP!
